Factory size for the staggered setup. 375 I think? It’s a Toyo tire though, so maybe it looks different. They ride nice.

No fitment issues whatsoever. Wanted to make it super flush either fender so added 12mm spacers in rear and 5mm spacers in front.

That kit actually looks awesome. One of the best non-Msport mods I’ve seen.

Even with the box and the itty bitty wheels she was so much fun to zip through the windy mountain roads in Arrowhead

fitment was spot on. seriously i have no complaint whatsoever on this kit and i am extremely anal when it comes to ordering non oem parts. i was also able to keep the exhaust valve on the right tip with no further modification because the cut was after the valve, not before

I have only done minor things to it. Black powder coated wheels, black double kidney grill, removed the badges, added tint and front clear bra. Replaced HID bulbs with Sylvania CBH, Coded with Bimmer Code, removed both resonators. I want to: add the rear diffuser, change my muffler tips for quad style, add a JL Audio subwoofer, paint roof and spoiler black. Work in progress.

There's no image man

X3MBullet · 08-20-2018, 09:22 PM

That's weird. I see it on my side when I go to the forum though. I even see my picture twice when you replied to my thread.
I used imgur.com for the image download and then turn it into BBCode.

How can you claim your excessive speed was legal because you were in Mexico when there's a huge anti-immigration wall in the way?

Thanks guys. 1st order of business is some replica 22's then the rear lip with square exhaust tips.

Made the switch to H&R springs from Eibach and couldn't be happier! The ride quality is the same as Eibach (not bumpy as many claim) but the performance and steering stiffness is far superior. Most importantly I love the drop.

eBay is the only carbon fiber option. The fitment is not OEM perfect but it works. Aero function in California makes a plastic version that has to be painted.

@rok335 brought his Space Grey F15 for H&R VTF and Spacer upgrade.
